Strong Running 565 Merlin V8, TH400 w/ Reverse MVB, 9 Inch, Disc Brakes, Cage/Tu













Vehicle Description
Vehicle Original VIN :844-822-626646
From the muscle car era but transformed into a Pro Street machine, this 1963 Chevrolet Nova Chevy II Pro Street sports a maroon and silver two-tone finish. The lift-off hood with hood pins reveals serious racing intentions, while 15" Cragar wheels front and rear wear 155/80R15 MT fronts and massive 31x18.00R15 MT rears. The tubbed rear quarters accommodate those wide meats, creating an aggressive stance that makes clear this Nova means business on the street.
Racing bucket seats covered in cloth dominate the black interior, secured by racing seatbelts for track-ready safety. A custom center console houses cup holders and various controls, while Auto Meter gauges provide critical engine data. The B&M shifter controls the transmission, and air conditioning keeps things cool during summer cruising. A full roll cage integrates throughout the cabin, with aluminum custom panels adding a professional touch. The aftermarket steering wheel with quick release completes the race-inspired cockpit.
Steve Schmidt built the 565 CID V8 Merlin block with Pro-Filer aluminum heads and performance cam, fed by a 4-barrel carburetor atop an Edelbrock intake manifold. A TH400 3-speed automatic with reverse manual valve body transfers power to a 9-inch rear end with 4.11 gears. Four-wheel disc brakes with Wilwood master cylinder handle stopping duties, while the Mustang II-style front end uses tubular A-arms with adjustable coilovers and sway bar. The rear suspension features a solid axle with 4-link, panhard rod, and coilovers.
